Senior policy advisor Stephen Miller admires President Trump greatly. He said this in an interview with Paul Bedard in the Washington Examiner:

“It is best understood as career federal employees that believe they are under no obligation to honor, respect, or abide by the results of a democratic election.

So basically it’s heads I win, tails you lose.

“‘If you elect Hillary Clinton, then I’ll implement all of her policies very faithfully, and if I see massive evidence of corruption on Hillary Clinton’s part, then I’ll keep it all a secret. If you elect a candidate I disagree with, then I’ll lie, I’ll leak, I’ll cheat, I’ll smear, I’ll attack, I’ll persecute, and I will refuse to implement, and I will obstruct at every single step of the way.’”
